An update for several Sony Ericsson handsets has been released. The update makes it the second update for the Sony Ericsson Satio and Sony Ericsson Aino. The Satio update brings in extra features, which allow you to upload to YouTube and Facebook. You can also shoot widescreen videos with WVGA and watch them in increased resolution (864×480). It’s also possible to connect the phone to gaming systems and home entertainment systems through DLNA. Unfortunately, there’s no information on whether this has fixed any of the ongoing issues with the handset. Let us know if you’ve noticed any differences/improvements after updating.

After much searching and regularly checking various online websites, I have found the Xperia X2 for order. Of course the handset can be found on eBay and the amazon marketplace but, online retailer Expansys finally have the Xperia X2 for order. Unfortunately the handset doesn’t come with a warranty so the company could possibly be importing the handset. The listing for the Xperia X2 also states that availability/shipping is around 7 days.

Following on from the Satio finally being made available in the US from the Sony Style store, the Xperia X2 is now up for pre-order. With the X10 already released in some countries though and the US very soon, could it be too late for the X2? The Xperia X2 features similar specs of the X10 except the main difference is the X2 is powered by Windows Mobile instead of Android. The X2 is loaded with Windows Mobile 6.5 which is an upgrade from the X1. Windows Mobile 7 isn’t on the cards for the handset either.

The Xperia has got a release date thanks to Play.com. You can now pre-order the handset from Play, who state the release date is January 29th. The RRP for the handset is £549.99 but, with Play it’ll cost £50 less at £499.99. While over on the Vodafone store, the Xperia X2 page has mysteriously disappeared. Instead you are greeted with a page not found page.

Expansys may have the release date of the Xperia X2 as January, but the official Sony Ericsson store has the release date listed much earlier. As early as October in fact. There’s no information regarding price or an exact date but you’re able to Pre-Register your interest on the handset. But before you even get to that, the company has outed the phone as being an exclusive to Vodafone here in the UK.

Live life in the fast lane with the XPERIATM X2 from Sony Ericsson, available exclusively in the UK on Vodafone.
